Proud Papa!

[jamsire]

Hello all!

I have enclosed the following pic to show my three meggys:

Marley, MIDI, and Jesse

I haven't had them together as of yet due to acquisitions and modifications.

But behold - here they be.

Proud I be.

The Sticks are next once I get them serviced.

Is Jesse the all maple Megatar prototype?

Hey there!

Jesse is all maple - as far as I know, and a bolt on. I upgraded the tuners to gold to match the stunning blonde complexion. Plus, she was converted to a bi-melody instrument. Currently considering changing the pickups to DiMarzio Deactivators. Very clear and loud and will complete the blonde look.

I'll race you to see who's first to get the "Thor's Hammer" !

Looking at the new price sheet on the megatar site. It looks like the mobius crew is having fun seein just how much stuff they can jam onboard a single instrument!

Wow I sure do like the Megatar it is seemingly the closest to what I would want in a dedicated tapping instrument.
Well perhaps someone in relative proximity will do a gig somewhere and I can eventually get to try one for a few brief moments.
No problem not in a rush still plenty of practice/learning I can do on a six stringer for now. But definitely want to try one out. :)

However, the unique and very large cavity beneath the pickguard was intentionally designed as a modular system that would permit a wide variety of pickups and electronics.

The cavity is almost the size of the pickguard.

Because from the beginning, we envisioned a modular system ranging from the very simple to multiple sound-chain capability, all available via semi-custom assembly to the musician's specification, using either the tonal advantage of fanned frets, or using parallel frets to permit most any tuning you can imagine.

That design, from day one, made possible what is now called the Hammer of Thor. You can choose and blend magnetic sound, piezo sound, and synth or modeller sound, any way you wish. No matter the musical project ... with the Hammer, you can flatten anything.

PS -- As musicians, all of us are much like the Buddhist who said to the hot-dog vendor, "Make me one with everything."

Dang it, The Hammer of Thor makes my Truetapper Storm look like a Wiffleball bat by comparison. I still love it though. :D
